Please don't just write the name of the game... write a little description of the game, and why you like it so much or something.

"We played it fro 16 hours straight once."
The longest I've ever played a game for with friends was three days... obviously with breaks. :D
Heroes of Might and Magic, very cool game. I'm not sure why not too many people have heard of it.
Mario Party 2.
At the weekend my brother came over, and my sister-in-law was staying with us, so we had a couple of games.
Both of which I won.
I just love those mini-games!

SMAC is a superb game. I've got it on my Mac. Me and one of my mates just sit there infront of the screen conducting secret projects and the such. We played it fro 16 hours straight once.
Infact it's not actually that hard a game to beat. Just keep trying and you'll get there!
Sudden Strike is now officially my favorite war game. The level of detail and realism mean that it has one up on the Command & Conquer series and you even find yourself getting attached to the characters. Controlling all your vehicles is really simple, something that a lot of other strategy games lack, and the whole atmosphere that's built up from the graphics and sound makes you feel like you're in WW2.
However, I will always have a soft spot for command and conquer and red alert, which I occasionally go back to (although someone else is borrowing them at the moment, so I can't) as these games really defined the genre.
